THE FREEHOLDERS OF NEW ZEALAND:
A RETURN

GIVING the Names, Addresses, and Occupations of Owners of Land within the Colony, together with the Area and Value in Counties, and the Value in Boroughs and Town Districts, compiled from the Assessment Rolls of the Property-Tax Department as at the 1st October, 1882.

The names of Freeholders are printed in alphabetical order; and all land owned by them, in whatever part of the colony, appears opposite their respective names, thus enabling the total capital value of each person’s freehold property to be seen at a glance.

The book also contains a Return of the Lands held by Banks, Insurance Companies, and Companies registered as Corporations with Limited Liability.

As a Directory the book will be found of great value, as it contains the most complete and reliable information, and includes the names of over 71,000 colonists.

The book can be obtained at the Government Stationery Store, Wellington.

Geo. DIDSBUHY,
Government Printer.

Wellington, 13th November, 1884.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ... NZGOAL is the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence ... [t]o the greatest extent possible, agencies should apply this licence to copyright material on their websites"

Third-Party Content

Where third-party content (e.g., notices submitted by external organisations) is identified within the Gazette, users should satisfy themselves regarding the copyright status of that specific content, as it may be subject to different ownership terms than the Gazette itself.
